In 1857, India was under the oppressive rule of the East India Company, a British corporation that monopolized trade across two-thirds of the world. This gripping historical fiction follows the intertwined fates of two main characters: Ram, a decorated Company officer, and James, the Queen's emissary from London. While trapped in erupting riots, their journey to Delhi expands into revealing a grander opportunity to take down the ultimate Company while they question their loyalties and beliefs.
Meanwhile, in London, Prime Minister Palmerston and the Queen face growing political pressure from opposition leader Benjamin and his influential ally. Benjamin criticizes the Company's mismanagement and warns of the potential loss of India. Their warnings are dismissed until news of the rebellion reaches London, causing a political storm.
What ensues next would change the course of a nation with far reaching global consequences. Come, dive into a different perspective of the business of colonization using capitalism and politics that still represents current events in the world.
